II. HAZARDOUS INGREDIENTS/IDENTIYY INFORMATION Air Exposure Limits (μg/m³) ACGIH TLV OSHA NIOSH Inorganic Lead/Lead Compounds Tin Calcium Dilute Sulfuric Acid Fiberglass Separator Case Material: Acrylonitrile Butadine Styrene (ABS) or Polypropylene (PP) III. PHYSICAL DATA COMPONENTS Lead Lead Sulfate Lead Dioxide Sulfuric Acid SOLUBILITY (H2O) None 40 mg/l (15 °C, 59 °F) None 100% None None None Sharp, penetrating, pungent odor None Sliver-Gray Metal White crystals or powder Dark brown Powder Clear Colorless Liquid White Fibrous Case Material: Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS) or Polypropylene (PP) Fiberglass Separator IV. FLAMMABILITY DATA COMPONENTS Lead Sulfuric Acid Hydrogen FLASHPOINT None None -- EXPLOSIVE LIMITS None None LEL=4.1% Fiberglass Separator Acrylonitrile Butadine Styrene (ABS) COMMENTS None None Sealed batteries can emit hydrogen only if over charged (float voltage >2.4 VPC). The gas enters the air through the vent caps. To avoid the chance of a fire or explosion, keep sparks and other sources of ignition away from the battery. Extinguishing Media: Dry chemical, foam, CO2 Toxic vapors may be released. In case of fire: wear self-contained breathing apparatus. Temperatures over 300 °C (572°F) may release combustible gases. In case of fire: wear positive pressure self-contained breathing apparatus. Polypropylene will burn but does not easily ignite. In case of fire: wear positive pressure self-contained breathing apparatus.

Material Safety Data Sheet VII. CARCINOGENICITY Carcinogenicity Sulfuric Acid: The National Toxicological Program (NTP) and The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) have classified strong inorganic acid mist containing sulfuric acid as a Category 1 carcinogen, a substance that is carcinogenic to humans. The ACGIH has classified strong inorganic acid mist containing sulfuric acid as an A2 carcinogen (suspected human carcinogen). These classifications do not apply to liquid forms of sulfuric acid or sulfuric acid solutions contained within a battery. Inorganic acid mist...
